Rajkummar Rao on Tuesday announced that his upcoming '97 per cent parivarik' film 'Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video' will be released on October 11.
Congress leader Shashi Tharoor on Sunday asked people to “chill” after his “light-hearted tweet” on India’s Manushi Chhillar, who won the Miss World 2017 title.
Manushi Chhillar won the Miss World 2017 title in China on Saturday, ending 16 years of drought for India at the international beauty pageant.
Referring to her, Tharoor tweeted: “What a mistake to demonetise our currency! BJP should have realised that Indian cash dominates the globe: look, even our Chhillar has become Miss World.”

“Guess the pun is the lowest form of humour, and the bilingual pun lower still! Apologies to the many who seem to have been righteously offended by a light-hearted tweet today. Certainly no offence was meant to a bright young girl whose answer I’ve separately praised. Please: Chill!”
